IParadesi Epholileyo NgeNtaba yeMboniselo kunye nekhitshi elipheleleyo

Buyela emva kwexesha kule ndawo inemigangatho eyi-2 eyenzelwe ukuyibona kakuhle. Kuqokelelwe izinto zakudala ezicingwe kakuhle kunye nezityalo ezininzi, iincwadi ezininzi, kunye nesidlali serekhodi. Bukela izilwanyana zasendle ezintle ngeefestile. QAPHELA: sihlala kwindawo engqongwe zizilwanyana zasendle, amahashe, izinja kunye neentlobo ezininzi zezityalo (indawo yethu ibizwa ngokuba yiFernwood kuba yeyona nto iluhlaza kwaye iluhlaza ukusuka ecaleni kolwandle) ngoko ukuba unezinto ezikugulisayo okanye isifuba, le ndawo isenokungakulungeli. Ngamanye amaxesha sivumela izinja, kuphela ukuba zivunyiwe kwangaphambili. Indawo ephezulu iqaqambile kwaye ibethwa ngumoya ibe yonke into imbonakalo! Ikhitshi ligcwele umxube wesandla sesibini nezixhobo ezintsha zasekhitshini. Ndiyakuthanda ukuqokelela izitya ezintle zamaplanga kunye nee-ceramics, ezilungele ukubonisa izitya zakho ezenziwe ekhaya. Sizama ukugcina ikhitshi linezinto ezisisiseko ezifana neoli yomnquma, iviniga yolwandle, ityuwa yolwandle, i-garlic, i-ardard, i-ketchup, i-soy sauce, kunye nokunye - ngale ndlela akuyomfuneko ukuba uxinzelelo malunga nokuthatha izinto ezininzi evenkileni. Igumbi lokuhlambela lincinci kwaye lincinci, kodwa linayo yonke into oyidingayo. Ndifake nengobozi eneetawuli zaselwandle. Yiya ezantsi kwigumbi lokulala elivulekileyo elineesilingi zamaplanga nekhabhathi enkulu. Ibhedi yiTuft & Needle King entsha kraca. Kukho idesika ukuba uzifumana ufuna ukwenza umsebenzi. Eli gumbi livulela indawo ephandle ebiyelweyo. Sihlala ngaphesheya kwendlu eyintloko ukuze ubone izinto eziyimfihlo. Ndisoloko ndikuvuyela ukwabelana ngayo nayiphi na imifuno okanye imifuno egadini. Kukho imigangatho ephathekayo nezinto ezininzi zamaplanga endalo kuyo yonke le ndawo. Kukho into yokufudumeza udonga kwigumbi ngalinye ukuze izinto zihlale kamnandi. Ikhaya lethu lakhiwa ngeminyaka yoo-60 laza lahlaziya lukhulu kwiminyaka yee-70/80 xa umntu ohamba ne-hippie ebizwa ngokuba yi "Peace Farm" wahlala apha. Inezinto ezininzi ezingaqhelekanga, kodwa yiloo nto sithanda uTopanga:) Kwelinye icala neveranda yakho kukho igceke lethu elineebhedi ezimbini zegadi. Zive ukhululekile ukuzijonga uze ukhethe imifuno. Sidla ngokubona ii-raccoons, ii-bobcats, ii-squirrels kunye nenyoka ngamaxesha athile eyadini yethu, ngoko qaphela apho uhamba khona. Indawo yakho yokungena ecaleni kwendawo yakho yokupaka ekwindawo yokungena imoto, ngoko kukho ithuba lokuba ungahlangani nathi. Sisebenza kakhulu ibe sisoloko sikhona, kodwa siyakuthanda ukudibana neendwendwe ukuze sikwazi ukufumaneka ukuba ungathanda ukudibana uze ufumane amacebiso asekuhlaleni. Okanye ukuba uyathanda, sinokugcina umgama wethu ngokupheleleyo;) Yiya kumzila oyimfihlo kude ukuze udibane nabamelwane abanobubele kunye nezinja. Umoya wolwandle omnene uthetha ukuba abantu basekuhlaleni babiza le ndawo "yemozulu egqibeleleyo yaseFernwood." Ukusuka apha kwicala lasentshona laseTopanga, ungaphantsi kwemizuzu eyi-15 ukuya elunxwemeni. Sikwindawo ephakamileyo ye-canyon, nto leyo ethetha ukuba ezona ndawo ziphambili, kodwa neendlela ezixineneyo eziphakamileyo. Yithathe kancinci uze wonwabele izandi zendalo! Le ngingqi yaziwa ngokuba yiFernwood ngenxa yindawo entle, ekusenokwenzeka ukuba ayikufanelanga izinto ezikugulisayo. Kungcono ukuba nemoto e-LA kuba isasazeke kakhulu. Ungahamba uye kwidolophu yethu encinci yaseTopanga ukusuka endlwini yethu kodwa imalunga neekhilomitha ezi-2 zehla uze emva koko kufuneka uhambe phezulu!! Siyenzile ibe akukubi. Kukho neendlela ezintle zokuhamba ezikude nathi. Kwidolophu yethu uza kufumana ivenkile entle yebhayisekile apho unokuqesha khona ibhayisekile entabeni ibe baza kukunika iinkcukacha ezininzi ngendawo onokukhwela kuyo. U-Uber noLyft bavela apha xa becelwa, kodwa ngamanye amaxesha kuyanyamezela. Simalunga nemizuzu eyi-10 ukuya kweyi-15 siqhuba sisuka elunxwemeni lwethu lwasekuhlaleni kunye neetoni zokupaka simahla esitratweni kwiTopanga Blvd (jonga iimpawu ukuqinisekisa ukuba ukwindawo yokupaka simahla). Okokuqala uhamba ngemoto usiya endlwini yethu, usenokuba uphazamiseke kancinci ngenxa yokugoba kwendlela! Isenokuba ngonaphakade, kodwa imayile eyi-1 kuphela ngaphandle kwe-boulevard ephambili kwindlu yethu. Hamba kancinci uze uthathe iindawo... izinto ezintle zamatye, amasele ecula ngasemlanjeni kunye nezindlu ezingaqhelekanga! Sinezinja ezimbini ezincinci zokuhlangula ezivuya kakhulu xa abantu abatsha betyelela, ngoko ke ukuba awuzithandi izinja, oku kusenokwenzeka akuyi kuba yeyona ndlela ifanelekileyo ;) Sizithatha kuyo yonke indawo kunye nathi, ngoko akuyi kubakho zinja zimosha iholide yakho enoxolo. Kwakhona, sihlala kumnyango olandelayo kumahashe, ngoko kusenokubakho ingxolo ebangel 'umdla imini nobusuku. Indawo yokupaka ilinganiselwe kakhulu kwi-cup-de-sac yethu encinci, ngoko nceda uqinisekise ukuba upakisha kwindawo ekhethiweyo kwindawo yethu yokungena imoto. Ndiza kukuthumelela imiyalelo ngaphambi kokuba ufike. Ukuba uyatshaya, nceda usebenzise umlotha okhethiweyo kwiveranda. Sikwindawo yokubasa umlilo, ngoko ungatshayi kufutshane nebrashi. Ukuba utshaya ngaphakathi, kuza kufuneka ndibhatale i- $ 200 kwidiphozithi yakho. Ukutshaya kwi-canyon kuhle kakhulu kuba wonke umntu exhalabile ngemililo, ngoko ndicebisa ukuba ulethe ipeni ye-vape ukuze uphephe iigla;) Ulwamkelo lweseli akumnandanga kwi-canyon, ngoko nceda ulungele ukungabi nayo nayiphi na inkonzo de ukonekte kwi-wifi yethu. Lungela ukuphela kwamandla kunye nokuphela kwe-intanethi, ukuvalwa kweendlela, ukukhutshwa, izigcawu kunye nokunye! Awukho esixekweni kwaye izinto zinokunyuka apha ;) Njengee-Airbnbs ezininzi, asizivumeli iindwendwe ezingabhaliswanga kule ndlu ngaphandle kwemvume yethu, ngoko nceda usibuze ukuba ungathanda na ukuba neendwendwe ibe ndiqinisekile ukuba singazamkela! Kukho abantu abayi-3 ubuninzi bale studio yeendwendwe ezilalayo. Sigcina ikhitshi ligcwele zonke izinto ezisisiseko kwaye sizama ukufumana yonke into ephilayo okanye i-GMO yasimahla: ioli yomnquma, iviniga ye-balsamic, i-ketchup, i-ardard, i-soy sauce, isosi eshushu, i-pepper ebomvu, ityuwa yolwandle, i-innamon, njl. UKUFOTA: Sikulungele ukufota, kodwa le nto kufuneka ichazwe kwangaphambili njengoko sinemali yendawo eyahlukileyo.
